In April, we were lucky to get one last stop at the Pocatello Zoo before moving. The weather even cooperated enough for shorts and T-shirts. Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to go back up to Idaho Falls to visit the zoo there, which was a little disappointing. The kids really enjoyed going around again. It was particularly fun for Charles since he has gotten into animals lately and is big enough to walk around on his own.
As usual Adahleigh had to hang on and jump off everything in site. Charles was a good sport for the most part, but we had to carry him around on occasion. 
This time while we were there the petting zoo was actually open, so the kids got to interact with the goats (since that's all that's available to touch in the petting zoo. Adahleigh has become willing to touch animals again and Charles is now shy, go figure, she went right up to the goats and started petting them.
No matter what I tried Charles wouldn't touch them, he'd get close and then pull away.
We tried to get a nice picture of the two of them in front of the buffalo cut out, but needless to say you can't ever get a good picture with more than one kid in it. These are our best attempts.
Of course the both got right up next to the fence to get the best view they could of the animals in their enclosures.
The kids also enjoyed playing on the learning toys, beside the slide and tree fort, the spider's web was a big hit. Adahleigh enjoyed playing on it, Charles tried but he wasn't quite big enough to climb around on it and really have fun.
We all enjoyed our day out in the sun, we even had a picnic after the zoo. Now we just wish it would get warm enough her that we could enjoy some time outside and some pool time, hopefully by next weekend.
